Their roast turkey every Friday is a winner with portions enough for two meals. The service is quick and efficient.
Great variety of food, hot and ready no wait. Our go to stop for breakfast and a bento for lunch on a work day. Portions are good, price is reasonable. If your from Oahu and like Marian's fish tempura, Hiro's is better. If you need catering pans, this is our go to place. chicken katsu, fish tempura and nori chicken. You need small to large bentos for your kids sports teams, this is the place to go.
When Hilo people come to Honolulu, they get depressed at our prices and portions. When I exiting the plane, the guy next to me told me "I just landed and want to go back to Hilo". He told me how Rainbow drive in was not the same and that lunch can cost $40 and he could still be hungry. I get it. He probably frequents places like Hiro! This place has been around FOREVER! I remember it as a kid and honestly I never tried the places left of KTA. We walk into KTA and then leave. I have heard of people going to Hiro's and ordering bentos etc.. and I am sure I ate their bentos, but I have never been there. Well, the other day, I went to Jack in the Box (more on that on another review) and didn't want to eat a burger. I wanted maybe a Bento from KTA. Well, KTA didn't have anything I wanted so I was walking back and saw a bunch of people eating outside Hiro's. I figured.... might as well try. I walked in and ordered a hamburger steak plate. Mac salad? OK, rice? Yeah! I paid for my order and was handed the take out container. WHAT IS IN HERE! It felt like 5 pounds or something!!!! I mean, it was heavy! I took it home and was greeted with 4 burgers in gravy with onions. Mac salad. Lots of rice! Not only that, it was good. I mean as good as any place I have tried for this. I couldn't eat it all.... I mean I could if I wanted to go comatose!!!!!!! I think this place is GOOD! It's local Hilo-style at its best. It was so much food that I skipped dinner because I was still full...... of good food! I'm giving them 5 stars because I can!
Great food! Amazing prices- would come again just for the reasonable prices alone! The service was great, friendly smiles all around! Wouldn't necessarily recommend the Mac salad here, as I did not personally enjoy it - my opinion though!! I love the Oahu type of Mac salad.
One of the best value plate lunches in Hilo. Food is good, the mac salad is great, and the portions sizes gives you a good value. The have a steam table so you can see what you are ordering
When the end of the afternoon is coming and you haven't eaten yet, come by here and get a quick lunch plate, The quick things you can get are the teriyaki chicken , the pork Lau Lau. They even had dinuguan, which I had to get. Service was fast and friendly. The food was pretty good. When I come Back gotta try other options Outside seating but on a beautiful day , can't have it any other way
I enjoy the different variety foods, one of the only places you can get Filipino food options. The owner works hard! She's killing it every day and I appreciate her. He staff is an extension of her, always courteous and quick!!! Love this place FYI they recover well, once my order got mixed up and they were so nonchalant about it, like no worries we'll take care of that!!! I appreciate a good recovery, mistakes happen! Try them!!!!!
My friend frequents this place often and likes the amount of food given for the price paid. We decided to stop for breakfast. It's located in the same area as KTA Puainako next to a lot of other small restaurants and shops and across of Jack in the Box. Parking will never be an issue as the parking lot is huge. I wanted to try their fried rice special since my friend told me it was delicious. Then I found out that there was spam, which I don't eat anymore, so I opted for their big breakfast plate that came with 2 eggs, 3-5 pieces of meat (depending on the meat choice; chose Portuguese sausage (4p)), and toast with either rice or hash browns (wasn't given an option to choose, lol). Standard breakfast for only $6. Not a bad price honestly! My friend got their shoyu chicken and sweet & sour pork. I took a bite out of both, and they were both full of flavor! I liked them but not my choice of foods for breakfast. Definitely a cheap and quick place to grab breakfast and/or lunch foods! They also sell premade bentos which are all under $6.
